The development of vaccine against EV71 is active and ongoing in Asian countries now. Several studies have examined the effectiveness of inactivated viral vaccines against EV71 in animal model. A wide range of experimental EV71 vaccine approaches have been studied including heat-inactivated or formaldehyde-inactivated virion, EV71 virus-like particles (VLP) , VP1 recombinant protein ,VP1 DNA vaccine , VP1 peptide-based vaccine targeting the neutralizing domain, bacterial or viral vector expressing VP1, and a Vero cell-adapted live attenuated virus. Furthermore, neutralizing antibodies against EV71 have been suggested as one of the most important factors in prevention of the severe EV71 infection.
